Day one
Author Spotlight – Renata Parvey
When we asked why she chooses to be an indie author this is her response. “I’m not from a literature or journalism background. Coming from the science field (I have a Masters in Nutrition and Dietetics), the writing and publishing industries are completely different arenas for me. Becoming an Indie author was more of an unconscious decision of merging my love for the written word and bringing that out to readers. I’m quite clueless about literary agents and how to navigate publishing houses.”
She has short stories, poetry, essays, articles and artwork published across books, journals and magazines. Some of the anthologies that feature my work come from Raven & Drake Publishing, Black Ink Fiction, Sweety Cat Press, Ghost Orchid Press, Her Voice.

According to the World Health Organization: “Gender refers to the characteristics of women, men, girls and boys that are socially constructed. This includes norms, behaviours and roles associated with being a woman, man, girl, or boy…

The little stranger II – Patricia Harris
pattimouse was published on another blog!
My mind welcomed the stranger at the start of the day
the beginning of my plan blew to hell,
the little stranger that entered my life
added to the need to be strong.
The stranger that brought such turmoil
to a life so calm and true,
was brought in from a mind confused,
Its name was anxiety,
and it forced its way in.
